Li Cheng brought 10 team members and drove two large ships back to the island base. The remaining team members at the base had packed up their supplies according to Zhang Ning's instructions and were waiting to evacuate.

"Get everything on board in 20 minutes."

"Yes, Captain Li!"

The team members immediately released their special powers to carry supplies and equipment onto the ship.

"Where are they?"

"According to Captain Zhang's instructions, we gave them some sedatives and sleeping pills so that they fell asleep and then sent them aboard."

"Okay, you guys, get these installed and the recording set up, right?"

"Don't worry, Captain, everything has been set up. Let's go install it now."

The team members acted quickly and installed the equipment without stopping.

As soon as the 20 minutes were up, everyone was on board.

At Li Cheng's command, the team members walked to the railing of the ship and released hundreds of beams of flashing energy, shooting directly at the island base, creating the scene of zombies attacking the base.

"Leave more traces to lure the enemy into a trap and make them believe it!" Li Cheng shouted loudly.

After all, it was their own precious base, and the team members had originally planned to just sprinkle some water on it. But upon hearing this, they gritted their teeth and increased their speed to attack, making several large holes in their own boat and sinking it into the sea. Finally, they evacuated smoothly on the refinery's large ship.

After the Zhongtian Army completed the evacuation of the island base, all team members put on the church uniforms of the Omniscient Church and established a defense line and secret base in the snowy S City.

"Who would have thought that one year ago today, we were still fighting zombies in Yangcheng."

"From a southern city to an island, and then to the north, even the King of Hell wouldn't take me away after I died, and I came back. To be honest, it's quite magical."

"Yeah, who would have thought that we are now lurking in the base of the mastermind. Hey, if the cult knew about this, they would be furious."

"It's better to be angry to death, so that he won't continue to poison people and create zombies to harm people."

"The only useful thing about the evil cult in City S is that it cleared out all the zombies here. I haven't seen a single zombie in the past few days. I feel so happy."

"You know what, they have a lot of good stuff for dealing with zombies."

The team members set up a hidden camp on the mountain next to the refinery, chatting while they worked.

"Captain Li!"

"Is it okay? Do you need me to add a few more hammers to make the hole bigger? This mountain is so big, it can withstand a lot of construction." Li Cheng stepped forward to check the progress of excavating the mountain and digging the hole.

"Captain, how did you come up with the idea of building a secret camp in the middle of the mountain? That's brilliant."

"Standing high means seeing far. You were all freezing last time we were scouting. At that time, I thought it would be great if we could build a hidden scouting cave or emergency shelter in the mountains. Now we have the opportunity. We have superpowers, so it's not difficult to tinker in the mountains. We must do it."

"The captain is really thoughtful. If we encounter danger, our people can hide in the mountains. Hey, we can attack or defend, and we can conduct guerrilla warfare anytime and anywhere."

"That's right, try not to knock down the trees, otherwise it will be too obvious. Come, I'll help you break some more so it's easier to dig!"

As he spoke, he punched the pit several times with his big icy fist, hitting the hollow crack just right. There was a loud "boom", and a naturally formed deep passage appeared under the pit.

Li Cheng didn't expect that this punch would bring unexpected results. This passage will definitely succeed if it is modified.

Since all the supplies in City S were looted by the Quanzhi Cult and taken back to the refinery, the city center has no electricity or heating, and people cannot live in the winter without a fire. There are a lot of vacant houses and shops, which are most suitable for cultivating and growing supernatural vegetables, fruits and grains.

"Captain, these bastards of the All-Knowing Church are so disgusting. They give people nutritional supplements and rotten vegetable soup every day. There are at least 30 tons of food in the warehouse. No wonder the bishops and priests are all so fat and bloated. They are all cannibals!"

Xiao Qing and Shi Gang had just found the factory warehouse and discovered a large amount of food piled up inside. Not only were they packaged intact, they were also wrapped in several layers of transparent film to isolate them from moisture and keep them at a constant temperature.

On the contrary, the two large canteens and the accommodation area in the factory were frozen into ice caves. The guards took turns working for 2 hours a day, and then stayed in the warm place in the factory to eat and sleep on the spot. Rotten vegetables were mixed with a large bowl of hot water to make a bowl of soup. If it was not enough, they would get an injection. This was their daily ration.

"Whistle, find some people to clean up the cafeteria and use all the food in the warehouse. From today on, we will provide meals normally. There are nearly 5000 people in the entire factory now. We need two meals a day, and we can't miss a single meal."

"Gangzi, I will have all the divine guards return to the dormitory to tidy up. You take a few teams to inspect and supervise and restore the heating supply to the dormitory area."

"Roger that!"

"Captain, are we going to collect the Divine Guards...?" Xiao Qing was about to raise his foot, but turned back and asked.

Shi Gang also stopped and wanted to know what Zhang Ning was planning.

"Well, they are just brainwashed by the cult, but don't forget, these divine guards are living people just like us. They are all Chinese people. We can't stand idly by and watch them die. Besides, with them around, we will be more powerful." Zhang Ning explained to them in an affirmative tone.

"What the captain meant is that we should give them warmth first and let them feel real care, so that they will slowly wake up. That's great, the piles of ice faces can be saved."

Xiao Qing and Shi Gang obeyed the order and left.

In the following days, the members of the Zhongtian Army and the Divine Guards were all busy.

The cafeteria is no longer cold. When it is mealtime, it is steaming hot and filled with the aroma of food. The dormitory area is also warm and has hot water for washing.

Zhang Ning also adjusted the working hours of the Divine Guards to be consistent with the team members. After all, living people need sufficient sleep and full food to facilitate movement and mental development.

The faces of those divine guards were still expressionless, but when they ate hot meals and had a normal life, although their icy faces remained unchanged, after a period of improvement, their physical strength was significantly enhanced, and their eyes gradually became brighter.

At the same time, multiple defense lines were set up in the city center to prevent the zombies from surrounding cities from migrating to City S. Indoor cultivation was carried out in shops along the street and large supermarkets to protect against wind, rain and snow. Soil and water containing special powers were used to accelerate growth, and ripe fruits and lush vegetables of various kinds could be produced in a week.

The work of excavating the mountain and digging holes was also proceeding in an orderly manner. Li Cheng led a group of team members to open up passages in the mountain. More people means easier work. In less than half a month, they completed the internal transformation of half of the mountain and set up three small surveillance windows facing the direction of the refinery, covering all the views from land, sea and air. Once there was any disturbance, they could immediately notify Zhang Ning and others.

That day, Zhang Ning and Li Cheng went to a special prison converted from a dormitory.

"Captain Zhang, Captain Li!" The two guards stood up immediately when they saw them.

"any progress?"

"Report, they didn't explain the internal affairs of the All-Knowing Cult, and said they knew nothing about it."

"They're so stubborn. Even brainwashing devices don't work on them. Zhang Ning, stop wasting food and kill them." Li Cheng didn't do anything ruthless at the time because he wanted to interrogate them for information later. He had been trying for almost half a month, but they were still stubborn and wouldn't say anything.

One bishop and three priests were imprisoned separately in reinforced dormitories. The energy-absorbing device inside made their brainwashing mouths completely useless. All they did every day was swear, throw things, get angry to the point of red faces, and eat a lot.

Whatever they say every day will be converted into text through the answering machine and fed back to the computer 24 hours a day, achieving a double insurance effect.

"Captain Li, let's try one last time." Zhang Ning looked at Li Cheng and said.

"Row."

The two men began to interrogate, and they believed that these bishops and priests must know the exact location of the Grand Master of the Church of Omniscience and the purpose of triggering the zombie virus.

"Get lost! Just wait, the Grand Master will soon know of your presence!"

"I won't tell you any information, just forget it!"

"I am a Chinese citizen who was persecuted by the All-Knowing Church. I know nothing. You are from the Chinese army. You cannot kill any civilians. That is against the law!"

"Where's my lunch?"

The four people gave irrelevant answers, which shows that they are loyal to the Omniscient Church.

"Captain Li, this is why we want to keep them. They are not worried or afraid at all after being captured. It seems like they are waiting for something."

"You mean, they may have a means of regular contact, or the Omniscient Sect has already noticed our actions?" Li Cheng frowned.

Zhang Ning nodded, "It's very likely. The information team checked their information and communications back and forth and found nothing unusual."

"We've checked the data and communications so many times but found nothing. Have you checked the external surveillance?" Li Cheng reminded.

"Now that you mention it, I remember the electromagnetic pulse attack. As soon as they appeared, they destroyed the power equipment in City S on a large scale. This motive is a bit... strange."

"Strange? What's strange about that? Isn't their goal to seize the refinery...? Hmm? Wait...if the goal is not just to seize the refinery..."

“Hide their tracks!”

The two blurted out at the same time.

"There is another group of cult members who don't need fuel and don't use communications, but they can know the situation of the refinery at any time." Zhang Ning said affirmatively.

"We landed on the golf course twice. The first time we used a helicopter, and then the attack came. This time we used a boat, and they didn't know about it!"

"We can only observe and watch!" Zhang Ning pointed out the key point incisively.

"Observe. The best observation point is from a high place, the chimney!"

“It’s white smoke coming out of the chimney!

Zhang Ning immediately asked the data and information group to review the refinery's operating data for the past three months to find out the pattern.

The investigation was amazing; we discovered the pattern of chimney smoke and the overlapping dates.

"It turns out that they are transmitting information through the white smoke from the chimney. This trick is quite covert." Li Cheng exclaimed.

"The day before yesterday was the day they contacted me. The refinery hasn't been operating normally for several days. They may have become suspicious. Now that things have returned to normal, we can't rule out the possibility that they have sent people to investigate."

"Then we all have to retreat to the mountains. Captain Zhang, you and I will be ready to welcome guests at any time."

"We are welcome, but we also need to arrange for the farewell."

Zhang Ning and Li Cheng looked at each other, and the same shrewd light flashed in their eyes.
